It came from us. So ultimately, they're just bringing it back. What's the difference: pay an existing citizen or pay a future citizen? Either way, the money always returns here.

While I'm on that topic, where does all the money sent to Arabia for oil go? It comes right back here (or some of the major European banks). Then, when they withdraw their funds for expenditures, who is the money paid to? Foreign companies/workers (Haliburton, Bechtel, et al) who build and maintain their infrastructure.

You see, when you're the big dog, you get a cut of everyone's action. They can't go anywhere without going through us. Which, of course, is what's driving world-wide Anti-Americanism; they're merely defeated socialists shaking their puny fists as the Colossus spreads capitalism everywhere through a system of our own making.

It behooves Saudi Arabia to help build up China's industry, and to that they send dollars to China, it behooves them to build up Europa -- to add that player at the table to lever against US. It behooves, all three to send US back our dollars in ways most calculated to diminish us, and to encourage -- which they are -- by extensive lobbying efforts, all our weaknesses.

So yes, the dollars come back -- returned with malice.
